Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What are the advantages of Phillips drive over slotted drive for copper screws?
Phillips drive provides self-centering capability automatically guiding screwdriver into recess, improved torque transfer compared to slotted drive enabling higher tightening forces, reduced risk of screwdriver slipping off screw damaging surrounding surfaces, compatibility with power screwdrivers and automated assembly equipment, four-point engagement distributing torque load, and widespread tool availability with Phillips screwdrivers being standard equipment worldwide.
Q2: Can copper Phillips head screws be installed with power tools?
Yes, copper Phillips head screws are suitable for installation with electric or pneumatic power screwdrivers. However, adjust torque settings appropriately as copper’s lower yield strength compared to steel requires reduced installation torque typically 30-50% lower than equivalent steel fasteners. Use proper Phillips bits matching recess size (PH0, PH1, PH2, PH3) and maintain bit condition to prevent cam-out and recess damage.
Q3: What is the typical lead time for copper Phillips head screw orders?
Standard lead time is four to six weeks from purchase order confirmation to shipment, accounting for copper material procurement, cold heading operations, thread rolling or cutting, Phillips recess forming, surface finishing, quality inspection including Phillips recess verification, and packaging. For standard sizes with materials in stock, expedited delivery within 2-3 weeks may be possible depending on order quantity and head style.
Q4: How do I select the correct Phillips recess size for my application?
Phillips recess size corresponds to screw diameter: PH0 for M2-M2.5 screws, PH1 for M3-M4 screws, PH2 for M5-M6 screws, and PH3 for M8-M10 screws. Using correct Phillips screwdriver size matching recess ensures proper engagement, optimal torque transfer, prevents cam-out during installation, and extends both fastener and tool life. Our technical team provides selection guidance based on application requirements.
Q5: What documentation is provided with copper Phillips head screw shipments?
We provide comprehensive documentation including material certificates from copper supplier with chemical analysis, dimensional inspection reports verifying head style, thread specifications, and overall dimensions, Phillips recess verification records confirming recess size and geometry per ISO 4757, electrical test results for conductivity and contact resistance if applicable, certificate of conformance stating compliance with specifications, and traceability documentation linking production batches to material heat numbers.
